We went later in the afternoon, place was busy but fast in their craft. Despite a party of 8 adults and 2 children we had our drinks and food less than 10 minutes after placing the order. The broth for my shrimp Pho was filled with great flavor even before adding additional aromatics. The only feedback I would offer is to add in additional jalapeño slices or herbs. read more

I'm a huge pho lover. The broth had a good flavor but it didn't taste like the homemade broth that I'm used to having back home in Houston where there are a lot of authentic Vietnamese restaurants. It wasn't bad at all though. They are pretty stingy with the meat in the soup and side of add ins. I literally only got one branch of cilantro with 3 leaves on it. Which i laughed to myself when i saw it lol. I'm sure i could of asked for more if i really wanted but decided not to. I'm used to getting a pretty good size plate of bean sprouts, cilantro, basil, jalapeños, and a lime. They gave a tiny plate of bean sprouts that i could of quickly counted, 2 slices of jalapeños (which i don't usually use anyways), a tiny cilantro leaf, and a lemon. I've never had pho with lemon. It's usually lime. So that was an interesting thing as well. I would come back due to there not being many pho options in Abilene. But i wouldn't necessarily crave their broth. I will say that the brown sugar milk tea was really really good. I drank it so fast! read more

Everybody likes Pho! Don't they? I've eaten at Abilene's regular pho spots over and over. And their all good! But will I try a new place? Let's go! Phoenix Pho is part of a new development by Abilene Christian University. Seven or eight shops with a BIG pond behind them. All shops have decks or patios facing the water. It's great! There's a jogging or walking trail around the pond. When you enter Phoenix, it's very minimal. I think the new word is industrial. The entire back wall is glass facing the pond. Pretty cool. I ordered the pho special and the bun special. I just discovered the cold vermicelli noodle dishes about a year ago. Now their one of my favorite dishes. The pho was great but I didn't go wow. I'll try the Pho Tai and see if that rings my bell! The bun special was very, very good. It comes with shrimp, beef, pork, and egg roll. The sauce that goes on this cold dish is just wonderful. The very crispy egg rolls were just right. I like crispy! We'll definitely come back to try the Banh Mi, and hope for a nice day so we can sit on the waters edge! See you there! read more

Food & drinks are great and come out very fast. Kids dishes are super small and a small side order of fries cost $5 but other than that the non-kids food have good flavor and are a good size. The people who appear to be the owners aren't really friendly and don't interact at all when you arrive or leave or while you're there for that matter. The waiter & waitress we've had the last two times were nice but always seem rushed. Overall we go there because our kids enjoy the Allen ridge lawn and play area after we eat but definitely not somewhere that makes you want to go back because of their service. read more

I'm somewhat new to the Pho world but I must say this place was very good. I ordered the Pho Special and asked for mine "spicy" and they nailed it! Perfect level of spice and flavor. The outdoor patio is great to enjoy dinner and have a drink on. We will be back to try the other offerings. read more

The food is incredible and for a good price! I usually get the edamame and the pho spicy. The service is quick if you are getting your food to go and is also equally pleasant if you dine in! read more

I love that we have more options in Abilene that weren't readily available as they are in more cultured cities. That being said please offer thai basil with your pho it is an essential ingredient. The bean sprouts looked a bit dry as if they sat out over night. The broth was great but I'd like the option of having beef broth over chicken. The menu placement makes it seem as if it's one or the other. However, your technology and cleanliness got you the fourth star. This is a great place for people who don't get a chance to travel and experience other types of foods. read more

Wow, I was blown away this spot exists here in Abilene. Super efficient service, the atmosphere was vibin, and the food was awesome! read more

Phoenix Pho - Bún Pheonix Special - Vietnamese Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Stopped by with my GF on Saturday. Had the Pho, it was delicious, but I will not order the spicy again! I eat a lot of spicy food, but this was dynamite in my mouth. Way too spicy. I think they need to tone it down. Returned today with hubby. We shared the dumplings and each ordered the pork Vietnamese sandwich and an order of garlic fries. Quite disappointed. The dumplings were swimming in oil and the fries were tiny and limp from the oil also. Could you make a steamed dumpling? The sandwich was lackluster, nothing to write home about. So sad. I was so excited with the novelty of a new restaurant in Abilene. read more

Phoenix Pho - Not much flavor. - Vietnamese Near Me - Abilene, Texas

This grilled beef rice always has the best flavor and taste, and also works well for me and my father both of which are gluten free. I highly recommend trying out the redbean milk tea with black boba if you are in search of a new boba tea flavor, it's mouth watering ! read more

Phoenix Pho - grilled beef rice, asked for extra cilantro and lime! One of my favorites :) - Vietnamese Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Tried it out for the first time today! Staff was incredibly nice and accommodating. Service was fast and, though the pricing seems like a lot at first, you get quite a lot of food for it. This was my first time having Vietnamese cuisine as well, so I couldn't compare it's flavor or authenticity. The shrimp fried rice and brisket pho were both incredible in my personal opinion though. I've heard good things about their milk tea with boba, but I personally got a guava green tea without boba and loved it. They have lots of variety in meats as well as drinks - I was really impressed and appreciated that. You can also ask for an oily spice or sriracha on the side, so it's good for all spice tolerance levels haha. Possibly one of my favorite parts is how close this is to ACU! It's nice having a good place nearby to get drinks (that aren't from Starbucks) on lunch break. read more

Super good! We got ours to go and it was wonderful! The egg rolls are yummy, I got the vermicelli salad bowl and it was very good and a huge serving. My husband got the Phoenix special sandwich and thought it was good. The chicken wings with garlic were crunchy and had a good dry rub on them. The taro boba tea was good too. Overall-recommend! read more

I do not live in the area, but have stopped here twice while traveling in recent months. The food has impressed both times! Today, we ordered spring rolls, egg rolls, and bun phoenix specials, along with original boba milk teas. Needless to say, there was nothing left after our family of four finished! read more

Placed an order for pick up and the broth was cold when I got home. A 5 minute drive. So disappointing!

So yummy! I got the brown sugar milk tea and it's the best bubble tea I've had in years! Great and quick service, I was very impressed! Good prices for the amounts of food and drink you get read more

Phoenix Pho - Brown sugar milk tea - Vietnamese Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Been living in Abilene for less than a year and haven't really been out to explore the food and this place was kinda on our top list. Went there today and was very excited but as soon as we received our food I was not too excited anymore, lol. Got the phoenix special, meat portion was a disappointment. The broth was sweet and it had an after taste on my tongue. the popcorn chicken was baby bite size and not fresh. Husband got chicken and rice, it was overwhelming with sesame oil, rice was old and hard. It's is more of a fast food pho place. The only reason that I'm giving it a 3 stars is because the drinks were pretty good. I would go back only for the drinks and that's it. I've had way better food and I was hoping this would be the spot but it didn't meet my expectations, food wise! I hate to leave such a negative review on an Asian place but u gotta do better. read more

Great Pho, and a very trendy vibe. The people who brought out our food were nice enough, but they general feel is that they really don't grasp the concept of customer service. Not every customer is an expert on pho, so be a little more welcoming by explaining the options. Some of us are trying really hard to expand our horizons. read more

I've been here multiple times the bun special is awesome. The dumplings and spring rolls are great. The service is hit or miss but food is consistently good! read more

Besides our TOGO food being horribly packaged (squished pho ingredients and leaked soup at the bottom of the bag) the food and taro smoothie was delicious. A little pricey but the food are good portions. read more

Ordered drinks and some viatnamese spring rolls. I got a drink I didn't want, but the food was good. Didn't order food after waiting 40 minutes watching people around us get their food because our waitress never came back after drinks. read more

I was so glad to see a new restaurant open that isn't a chicken place! Their pho is delicious and well worth the trip. We've tried a few appetizers and they are excellent too. The popcorn chicken (for the kiddo) was clearly hand breaded and cooked right there- such a nice change! They have a variety of Vietnamese dishes, smoothies, and boba. You can eat indoors or outside on a nice patio. read more

Update on my previous review: I waited. I came back. The annoying timer and disgusting towels shoved under the doors were all gone. The pho is better than it was previously, and better than I expected the second time around. I like the boba drinks and the meatball pho. The price is still too high in my opinion for the product, but it's to be expected for the location. read more

I'm a regular customer here. Today the waiter took 15 minutes to come over to our table. Took our food order first then drinks. We finished our food and my wife went and asked where our drinks were. Drinks didn't come because he never gave them to the bar. And currently waiting for 20 mins for our check. read more

Phoenix Pho - Brown sugar milk tea: it tastes like the black milk tea, with brown sugar added. Yum! - Vietnamese Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Chicken and veggie pho is salty!! Don't get it if you are looking for this kind of pho. I asked to be compensated because it's not my fault that the food is salty and wasn't compensated in anyway. I'll be coming back, but I'm new to town and I've been craving authentic viet food and sad this is the best I could get here. read more

Phoenix Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Way over rated.... Not going there anymore. Service was good but food was very disappointing

My mother and I went to get boba tea (their tea is delicious!) Unfortunately, they added a ton of ice; my mother took three sips and it was already half empty. So I went back inside and told them my mom did not like how much ice was in it and was wondering if they could make a new one. The gentleman just stared at me in silence, so I asked to pay for a new one with light ice. He rang me up without a word. When the new tea was ready, I said thank you, and the person making the tea blatantly ignored me. Their tea is so good I just wish their customer service was better. This isn't the first unpleasant experience I've had with their employees:( read more

This was a great find. The food was excellent the service great too. You get a lot of food at a good price. They helped me find something delicious despite my food allergy. We sat by the window and enjoyed the view of garden and fountain read more

Pho hardly have any meat, meat ball tast terrible. Not recommend for asian people cause asian know how pho should taste like.
